In today's instructional video, I want to make good on a promise I made a few weeks ago to open the vault on a few of my gamified/edutainment lessons centering upon the teaching of grammar, punctuation, and syntax.
While Tiddlywinks is super fun and highly engaging ... little do students realize that they are mastering the art of the comma, colon, semicolon, and dash.
Through a tad bit of competition and collaboration, your students will do the heavy lifting and teach each other the basics (so sit back and wave goodbye to all the compositional happy little accidents they are so prone to make).
In the YouTube video description, you'll find links to 40 mentor sentences, the Tiddlywinks game board, a link to Strunk & White's "Write It Right," plus the PowerPoint I use to host this activity ... free for the taking.
Please subscribe to my new email channel if you haven't already: Kristian Kuhn ... The Bob Ross of Composition.
We are quickly approaching 20K subscribers, which blows my mind!!
Please feel free to reach out should you need anything.
Happy teaching and happy writing!
